Stat Doctors™ Develops Physician App to Enhance eHealth Delivery, Coordinated Care


SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. --(Business Wire)--

Stat Doctors™, a leading national eHealth solution, is set to launch a physician-facing application to simplify and improve delivery of the company's eHealth services. The Physician App, which is scheduled for release next month to Stat Doctors' network of board-certified ER physicians, features a next-generation electronic medical records system, enables seamless communication between Stat Doctors' physicians and patients' primary care providers, enhances coordinated care and incorporates proprietary video technology, allowing physicians to interact with patients as they would in person.

Accessible on iPad, iPad Mini or any modern browser, the Physician App was designed to complement Stat Doctors' eHealth delivery model. During the testing phase, it was shown to maximize physician productivity and improve the patient-doctor experience.

"The Physician App was designed by doctors, for doctors, to replicate the patient-physician relationship of past generations when doctors took the time to get to know their patients," said Dr. Andrew Wagner, M.D., chief medical officer of Stat Doctors. "Many physicians complain EMRs get in the way and even hinder the delivery of care. We know our doctors will be thrilled with the new app, as it offers the most advanced and intuitive eHealth charting system available, and will help them return their focus to patients, rather than fumbling through a cumbersome charting process."

The Physician App utilizes proprietary technology to offer these innovative features:

    The app includes built-in charting templates based on patients' chief complaints. The templates automate much of the charting process and allow doctors to focus their attention on patients.
  • The streamlined charting process speeds up the delivery of discharge instructions for Stat Doctors' patients and simplifies communication with patients' primary care physicians.
  • Doctors can view patient charts and medical history at-a-glance, providing contextual cues to inform patient care.
  • The Physician App is built entirely on top of Stat Doctors' proprietary mobile application programming interface and is fully responsive based on the user device.
  • It is 100 percent native to iPad, and leverages familiar touch-based and swipe-action functionalities.
  • It offers an intuitive visual design with colored and highlighted selections that put the right information at physicians' fingertips.



"Since launching Stat Doctors in 2009, our singular purpose has been to provide the highest-quality medical care in the most convenient, affordable and efficient manner possible," said Dr. Alan Roga, F.A.C.E.P., M.D., founder and CEO of Stat Health Services, the providers of Stat Doctors. "The Physician App is our next innovation, as it improves the delivery of care, while also significantly improving physicians' satisfaction."

The launch of the Physician App comes on the heels of the Stat Doctors Mobile App, which is an application that provides patients with access to care on the go. Available for iPad, iPhone (News - Alert) and Android smartphones, the Stat Doctors Mobile App also uses proprietary technology to enable high-quality video consultations.
